Maits Rest Rainforest Walk

During the day a serene and other worldly walk with giant tree ferns and Mountain Ash trees, hundreds of years old. Well signposted and steel ramps are in great condition. Walk is not too long. At night after sunset we returned to spot the glow worms and found some in three separate clusters on the left shining like stars in the darkness less than a metre to the ground. So bright ! Must do rainforest walk day/night or both.

Went searching for glow worms here with our son and was happy to find a small scattering of them just past the bridge at the halfway point. Easy enough to navigate the well defined track at night with the aid of a couple of torches. It's also a great walk during the day with elevated walking platforms dotted along the track making for interesting views of the surrounding dense forest.

Very beautiful scenery along this walk, would definitely recommend. It's quite easy with many walking platforms, has different information points displaying different facts and history of the area, and the trees are massive. Some are over 300 years old.

All tracks in there area are very well maintained. A rest stop here and there on the way out gave the opportunity to take in the surroundings. Win.win

Short walk but great if you just want a little adventure in the forest and have kids or something as it's an easy walk with a boardwalk. Some huge trees there which are very impressive.
